If someone doesn't know what Shazam is, it listens to music playing on the radio or TV and identifies it and helps you find the name/artist.

I was wondering if there open source equivalent, I tried searching google and AlternativeTo but only found Linux desktop apps.

part where I spend other people's time proposing a feature I'm not willing to spend time to implement

Perhaps there could be an optional setting that lets you contribute to a crowdsource thing when people rip their cds with open source software and get the metadata from MusicBrainz (those that still buy cds)? Seems pretty do-able actually.

part with unfounded patent speculation

Maybe there is a patent or something keeping that feature from being added to the databases and programs?
